CREB binding protein (CBP) is an acetyltransferase that plays an important role in many
biological processes. Here, we show that Akt phosphorylates CBP at threonine 1871 and
suppresses its acetyltransferase activity by impeding the binding of CBP to histone H3,
which results in a decrease in lysine K18 acetylation and dysregulation of target genes. Our
results demonstrate that Akt regulates acetyltransferase activity through CBP
phosphorylation, which may contribute to tumorigenesis. STRUCTURED SUMMARY OF …
